Have you thought about visiting Denmark’’s Most Beautiful Pigsty at this year’’s Skanderborg Festival?

We have a joint task and a shared responsi- bility

-Kjeld Johannesen | CEO

We have a joint task and a shared responsibility. And we can only see the task through if we believe in it. Reducing Danish Crown’s payroll costs by 20 per cent per kilogramme represents a huge challenge. But we have come a quarter of the way, and I feel confident we can achieve our goal with the rest. You have to think what the alternative is.

Danish Crown best workplace for apprentices

Several thousand companies competed for the prize, but Danish Crown won the title of Denmark’s best workplace for apprentices.

In November 2008 Danish Crown Sæby was voted best workplace for apprentices out of approx. 2,000 companies. The award ceremony took place at Christiansborg, the seat of the Danish Parliament, where a representative from the Danish Ministry of Education presented the award to Søren Olsen, who is responsible for training apprentices in Sæby.

I am slightly overwhelmed. I didn’t expect to win at all, and it is slightly surreal to come first in a competition which you have not entered yourself. The most important thing for me is that my apprentices have nominated me and feel that I do a good job, Søren Olsen explains.

A new life
Søren Olsen was put forward as a candidate for the award by Rasmus Nielsen because he feels that Danish Crown has given him a new chance despite his tainted criminal record. He produced six hand-written A4 pages describing his life so far, and how Søren Olsen, as the person responsible for apprentices, has helped him in a difficult situation.
